How can I encode string in python as the same as javascript escape?

Question

if I escape '가온' in javascript,

the result would be:

escape('가온')
'%uAC00%uC628'

I want to get the same result like the js in python.

However, if I encode as ascii like:

byte_string= "누리".encode('ascii', 'backslashreplace')
b'\\ub204\\ub9ac'

the result isn't same. How can I?

Answer 1

Something is confusing in your question: first you encode '가온' then '누리'.

I think encoding with 'backslashreplace' can work as long as you decode and replace the backslashes with % :

"가온".encode('ascii', 'backslashreplace').decode().replace('\\', '%')

Output:

%uac00%uc628

Answer 2

JavaScript escape() is URL escape .

You can get this using urllib in Python .

Note that URLs may have multiple different encodings for the same characters. However any valid URL parses should accept any encoding.
